Soccer Hits the Road to Face Omaha Friday Night

Soccer 9/8/2022 4:21:00 PM

The Bradley soccer team remains on the road for its second-straight game, squaring off with Omaha on Friday night.

GAME INFO
Kickoff is set at 7 p.m. with fans being able to watch the game live on Mavs All-Access.

SERIES HISTORY
In a series that started in 2012, Omaha holds a slight 4-3-0 edge against the Braves. Bradley, however, has won the last two meetings, including a 1-0 victory against the Mavericks last season at Shea Stadium. Jake Schoffstall scored the game's only goal in the 71st minute with assists to Patrick Fishburne and Jack Douglas, while Bryce Logan stopped all four shots he faced in the shutout win.

ANCHOR IN GOAL
Junior Nick Burke has had quite the impact for the Braves in his first season as the team's goalie. A transfer from Niagara, Burke currently ranks ninth nationally with 21 total saves through four games of the 2022 season, while placing 17th in the country with 5.25 saves per game.

In fact, Burke's 21 total stops are the most by a Brave through four games of a season since Adam Gross collected 22 in 2000.

UP NEXT
Bradley returns to Shea Stadium next week, where the team is currently unbeaten on the year. The Braves host Southern Indiana on Tuesday with a 6 p.m. kickoff.
